Since 1963, Linden Comansa has made about 16,000 cranes. Within Sweden during the year 1977, the first Linden 8000 cranes were manufactured by Linden-Alimak. These units are considered to be among the first Flat-Top cranes used for construction reasons. The actual concept of Flat-Top did not change until the Linden Comansa company adopted this particular description during the early 1990s. The term Flat-Top crane is now a universally excepted term.
The company continues to develop the flat-top crane design even nowadays. They have proudly developed the LC 500 Series. The main goal of this range is an update of the popular NT Series. Comansa introduced the latest crane technology and the flat-top design. This series features a variety of flat-top cranes made up of 4 kinds. These flat-top cranes have lengths from 35 meters up to 50 meters and offer a maximum jib-end load of one ton.
Starting in the summer of 2008, the LC 1100 Series offers a lot of innovations in comparison to the previous crane series which Linden Comansa offers. Some of the biggest changes are outlined below. These adaptations and enhancements made to the design have greatly improved these machines' comfort, capacity and efficiency, making them a really popular piece of equipment. The technology has developed and the company takes pride in offering all their clients a reliable, durable, quality machinery which is really successful in a lot of different settings.
The new LC 1100 series keeps the Flat-Top system in place, while still being a lot easier to erect. This is due to pre-installing the slewing and hoisting systems, along with the electric cabinets. These are installed at the factory and then delivered to the client. In addition, compared to the prior series, the slewing structure's lesser weight makes the crane much easier to erect overall.
